A month ago, a Brazilian man was separated from his 9-year-old son after requesting asylum. The man asked to remain anonymous with news sources because he fears violence from a gang that is looking for him in Brazil.
He is being held in Cibola County Correctional Center and doesn’t know when he will see his son again.
Cibola County Correctional Center, like many immigrant prisons, is run by CoreCivic, one of the biggest private prison contractors with ICE. And if your pension is held by financial firms like Fidelity or Vanguard, your own earnings could be invested in the facilities that imprison parents.
Over 2,000 children have been separated from their parents at the border in the month since the Trump Administration announced its “zero tolerance” policy on unauthorized entry. And while children are carted off to “tent camps” run by nonprofit contractors, many of their parents end up in private prisons run by corporations like CoreCivic that hold some 15,000 immigrants each day.
It turns out that mainstream financial firms like Fidelity and Vanguard own a combined 20% of CoreCivic. Which means that your pensions may be invested in corporations that profit from the indefinite detention of families fleeing violence and instability in Mexico and Central America.
If you’re as outraged as us, you can tell your pension fund manager directly that you won’t stand for your hard-earned money being invested in immigrant prisons. Use our pension tool now to urge your fund manager at Fidelity or Vanguard to divest from the inhumane incarceration of immigrants like Mejia-Mejia now.

Yesterday, Donald Trump finally accepted responsibility for his administration’s disgusting policy of splitting up families seeking asylum in the U.S., and signed an executive order “ending the process.”
Don’t be fooled, Connie. Trump’s executive order does nothing to solve the immigration crisis. Under the new rules, border agents, instead of tearing children from their parents’ arms, will just throw the whole family in jail.
That’s not acceptable. Not by a long shot.
Not only has Trump failed to solve the problem he created, but if we don’t speak up IMMEDIATELY, Congressional Republicans are going to make it worse. Today, they will bring two bills to the floor. The first is dead on arrival, supported only by a handful of members on the extreme far right.
The second, though, is the so-called “compromise” bill, and it’s supported by Republican leadership. But it’s no compromise. It’s a cruel, unprincipled mess that:
Does not guarantee an end to family separations and accelerates the jailing of families and children at the border;
Eliminates basic requirements for the conditions of family detention centers, like the availability of clean water, food and medical care;
Provides $25 billion for Trump’s disgraceful border wall;
Leaves over two thirds of Dreamers without a clear path to citizenship;
Revokes over 3 million previously approved citizenship petitions of people who have followed the law and gone through the proper procedures;
Diminishes protections for those fleeing danger and seeking asylum in the United States.
When the liver is full of toxins, the nearby organs are affected and the heart is the first to show its effects. Since the lungs get the first toxins and the bowels shows the signs, we must be aware of comorbidities.
